Compare accredited options below, ranked by our independent BOC Score.

Online Colleges in Wyoming give residents a way to earn a degree without relocating or commuting to campus, while often keeping the in-state tuition advantage that public universities extend to residents. Wyoming’s public university and community college system generally charges a lower per-credit rate to state residents than to out-of-state students, and that resident rate commonly still applies to fully online coursework – confirm each school’s residency policy for online learners directly, since some institutions charge a flat online rate regardless of state of residence.

What studying online from Wyoming means

Choosing an online program while living in Wyoming typically comes down to three factors: cost, accreditation, and program fit.

In-state tuition. Public colleges and universities set separate tuition rates for residents and non-residents. Because Wyoming has a small number of public institutions, it’s especially worth calling the admissions or bursar’s office directly to ask whether the online tuition rate matches the on-campus resident rate, since some schools apply a separate online-only price schedule that differs from the campus rate, and our directory does not currently have a reported in-state tuition figure for any Wyoming school.

Accreditation verification. Before applying, confirm that any school you’re considering holds accreditation recognized by the U.S. Department of Education. The fastest way to check is the Database of Accredited Postsecondary Institutions and Programs (DAPIP), which lists every institution’s accrediting agency and the scope of that accreditation. A degree from a school without recognized accreditation may not transfer for credit at another institution – so this step matters regardless of which program you choose.

How the list below is ranked. The accredited online colleges shown on this page are ordered by our independent BOC Score, a methodology that weighs accreditation status, reported outcomes, and other published data points rather than paid placement. Request information from any listed school to compare specific program offerings, formats, and current costs directly with the institution.

How We Rank Schools

Every school list on this site is ordered by the BOC Score, computed from the most recent school-level data published by the U.S. Department of Education (College Scorecard and IPEDS). To qualify, a school must be currently operating and accredited by an agency recognized by the U.S. Department of Education. Each eligible school is then scored on five measures, percentile-ranked against schools at the same credential level:

  • Graduation rate 30%
  • Median earnings, 10 years after entry 25%
  • Average net price (lower is better) 20%
  • Retention rate 15%
  • Fully online availability 10%

Schools without enough outcome data appear after ranked schools, without a score. Advertising never affects these rankings. Read the full methodology.

Choosing between an in-state and out-of-state online program

Residents aren’t limited to Wyoming-based schools – many accredited online programs based in other states enroll students nationwide at a single flat tuition rate. Because Wyoming has relatively few public options with reported online tuition data, it’s worth weighing the total cost of completion at an out-of-state online program alongside any in-state option, and comparing fees for technology, proctoring, and any required in-person residencies before deciding.
